| [Bobby Martin] His name is Stevie Vai
|
| And he’s a crazy guy
|
| Last November, I recall, he needed a spanking
|
|
|
| He decided then
|
| A female specimen
|
| Would be exciting for a night to give him a spanking
|
|
|
| Laurel was her name
|
| She came to Notre Dame
|
| He told me just the other day he oughta be thanking her for the spanking
|
|
|
| She was large and soft
|
| And she beat him off
|
| Made him drool upon his dork and gave it a wanking after the spanking

| Honey… wah! Splash!
|
| Guys with light blue hair NEVER DID)

|
|
| Then she did exclaim:
|
| “There’s another game
|
| That we can play with this device and then a banana”
|
|
|
| It was slightly green
|
| Vapors in between
|
| Rising up to fill the room and cook the banana
|
|
|
| She said it was dry
|
| “Stevie, won’t you try
|
| To drool a little drool on it and grease the banana”
|
|
|
| Later in the dawn
|
| Laurel carried on
|
| She got right up and dressed herself and ate the banana
